Darren if I'm not mistaken you don't have enough garage space at home for another car? Which car are you sending to me for caretaking?

Oh dear, Darren's spent sooo much on the car that he can no longer afford to put 50p in the electricity meter

.....I'm actually quite good at paying my way.....I have a memory as a kid of two bailiffs turning up at the house on the Council estate we lived on chasing an unpaid bill, I had issue with the way one spoke to my mum and as a feisty 14-year old got ready to fight the pair of them at which point the second guy smiled and gave me a wink! That stopped me in my tracks and I realised they were only doing their job!......must have touched a nerve as I've never missed a payment in my life!

The glorious images are courtesy of Chris Tarling, a fellow Porsche enthusiast and professional photographer who operates as Yellow Hound Photography......Chris asked if he could document the build at various stages to use on his website and I was more than happy to oblige.

Chris kindly sent me a few images after his marathon session on Thursday, how he has caught the light, tiny details and shapes is pure art imo ....

With permission these are a couple of my favourites.....

....the drama of that huge Whale Tail.....



....and the original 911 silhouette disrupted by those magnificent flares!



Love it!

Thanks Darren!

That will make some kind of an album for the car, and to enjoy in later years. Lots of history is good to record in detail as I felt when I did 30 years with my 911 recently.

Shiny paint is only as good as what lies beneath....

Pretty sure it's going to be yellow. I think it was mentioned somewhere in the thread?
